We have a fun Get Spooked Challenge on the Ways to Use It (WT816) today. So I think this card will definitely fit right in. For the bg, I used the Wrinkle Free Distress tech on some lightweight watercolor paper using some yellow, orange & purple Distress inks.
When it dried, I used the splatter bg to stamp over it w/ gold ink & used gold embossing powder. Then I put the panel in my Misti & stamped the graveyard & crow. Leaving the panel in place, I put the white layer w/ the oval cut out on top & stamped the grim reaper, took the white panel off & stamped him again. The tombstone & ghost were stamped on white & fussy cut.
Here’s the inside:

For the
Inspiration Challenge (IC721), we have Flags on a Stick. They have some really fun, really nice flags & for my card, I was inspired by THIS Halloween flag. I thought the decorated birdhouses were really cute.
For my Halloween card, I die cut the houses & ghosts out of white, the tree, crows & fence out of black & the tiny pumpkin out of orange. To me it seemed simpler to cut the houses in white & color them instead of cutting a bunch out of different colored paper. The die I used for the birdhouses is actually one multilevel roofline spooky house. I cut it out twice then cut apart the house to make my 3 birdhouses. On the yellow one, I colored the stars thru a stencil. I used a 3/8″ circle punch for the holes, colored them black & put them back in. Then I just put all the pieces together on a white front where I had already stamped the greeting frame.
Here are the Copics (& 1 orange Tombow) I used. This may be the first time I’ve used that black Copic!

Today’s Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast (WT498) is to use any tree. My card has some spooky little trees in the neighborhood. And some cute little ghosts in striped socks all ready to trick or treat.
My card is pretty quick & easy…I started by doing a brayered background w/ the yellow/orange end of rainbow pad and added a little red/orange toward the bottom. I die cut a black frame with an opening large enough so I could stamp my little scene inside on the bg. I also stamped the moon again on white, cut it out and glued it on top of the base. The greeting was white embossed and a white gel pen was used to fill in the little windows of the houses. The little ghouls were fussy cut and added on top.
